![]() ![]() It’s like novelty Christmas sweaters for Halloween. I think, I will be adding our Halloween t-shirt wearing on this special carving day to our Halloween family tradition. Zazzle have hundreds of Halloween styles, designs and patterns to choose from. The kids looked absolutely adorable in their his and her style of the same t-shirt. This year we even adorned these gorgeous Halloween t-shirts from Zazzle while we celebrated carving day. I absolutely love celebrating Halloween with them. Each year, it seems like a bigger deal to them and they get more into the festivities with me as they get older. ![]() I get to work tracing and carving the pumpkins while the seeds bake and then we all settle down to watch a nice Halloween movie and eat our pumpkin seeds together. The kids love gutting out the pumpkins and washing them to make Roasted Pumpkin Seeds to eat later. After we have stomped through the pumpkin fields at a nearby farm and picked the perfect pumpkin we get them home to carve. Our pumpkin carving day is probably the biggest tradition of them all. We baking pumpkin cupcakes, we visit pumpkin patches to pick our own pumpkins, we go shopping for coordinating costumes, we challenge ourselves (mostly mommy) to carve the most difficult, favorite cartoon characters the kids can think of, roast pumpkin seeds, decorate the house and it all comes down to the last day where we finally trick or treat. I swear the entire month of October, we are doing something to celebrate the upcoming trick or treat festivities. Halloween is one of those holidays we really like to go all out. My two toddlers are now at the age where they understand what the holidays are about for the most part and can really get more involved in making family traditions. When I got married I looked forward to the time where I would have kids to start my own family traditions as my own mother did with us. I love a good holiday tradition no matter what that holiday may be. ![]()
